INSPIRATION: “SIOUXSIE SIOUX AND
ANNIE LENNOX, INSPIRED BY WOMEN IN THE80S, USING MAKEUP TO EMPOWER, GIVE
STRENGTH AND CREATE A STRONG PERSONA.” - THOMAS DE KLUYVER

FACE

M·A·C STUDIO FACE AND BODY
FOUNDATION in WHITE applied with BEAUTYBLENDER and pressed into skin for a pale
base; blending over the ears while leaving the neck natural to provide a New
Romantic feel to the look. FULL COVERAGE FOUNDATION in WHITE used to build
coverage and applied to the cheekbone, center of forehead, nose and chin to
highlight. POWDER BLUSH in PEONY PETAL blended down from the outer corner of
the eye onto the highest point of the cheekbone, connecting with EYE SHADOW in
RED BRICK for a two-toned mélange on skin, using the 224 SYNTHETIC TAPERED
BLENDING BRUSH to apply and blend.

EYES

EYE SHADOW in RED BRICK applied with the 217 SYNTHETIC
BLENDING BRUSH to create an opaque orange-red from the lash line upward,
softening toward the brow, then through the inner corner and under the eye in a
concentrated descending round shape toward the cheek. PREP + PRIME TRANSPARENT
FINISHING POWDER used with the 224 SYNTHETIC TAPERED BLENDING BRUSH to soften
and diffuse edges.

LIPS

EYE PENCIL in EBONY used to
outline the lip – sharp, but not too aggressive in nature. RETRO MATTE LIQUID
LIPCOLOUR in CAVIAR layered over the lips for an opulent black and topped with
LIPGLASS in CLEAR for a glossy finish.
